Sintering zirconia. ALL-IN-ONE sintering furnace.
Your sintering process must be tailored to your lab.
Different materials, different requirements, different speeds: With the NOVA Series, you can flexibly adapt your sintering process to your needs.
Optimized programs are available for numerous zirconia materials from various manufacturers—ranging from conventional and speed processes to the Advanced Sintering Process.
NOVA Studio
The Sprinter for Urgent Jobs
You do: zirconia restorations with up to 3 units, conventional or Speed sintering, glazing, staining, and Lisi crystallization.
You’ll often find NOVA studio here:
→ Specialists in all-ceramic restorations
→ Large labs with large furnaces or milling centers that use a separate
“Sprinter” for rush jobs or corrections
→ small labs that want to save on a second furnace, both financially and
in terms of space
→ in-office labs that complement their processes with chairside CAM
Save yourself the cost of a second furnace
→ NOVA studio is an ALL-IN-ONE device, meaning you
no longer need a separate furnace.
Be efficient
→ Only 30 minutes of effective sintering time and
A heating rate of up to 200 °C/min is possible
→ Regeneration time reduced by 85%
→ Save yourself the wait until the standard sintering furnace is fully loaded
NOVA lab
The Van for Day-to-Day Work
You can do: zirconia to full arch, including two layers stacked on top of each other, conventional or speed sintering, glazing, and staining.
You’ll often find NOVA lab here:
→ High-end labs
→ Lab owners who think beyond the warranty period and seek investment security
→ Large labs or milling centers that want to process many large jobs without compromising quality
→ Zirconia manufacturers and universities that need a precise reference furnace
Save yourself the cost of a second furnace
→ In NOVA lab, you can stack two trays on top of each other. Take advantage of the increased capacity
Be efficient
→ Heating rate of 100 °C/min
→ Regeneration time reduced by 85%
Speed, High-Speed, or Conventional
You decide which sintering process is best suited to your material and your lab workflow.
Optimized Material Programs
Optimized programs are available for numerous zirconia materials from various manufacturers. You can add new materials via a free download.
Maximum Programming Flexibility
The program screens are fully programmable. With numerous memory slots and multiple heating and cooling stages, you can customize your sintering processes.
High heating rates
The NOVA lab achieves heating rates of up to 100 °C/min, while the NOVA studio reaches up to 200 °C/min.
